So, by the end of this day, we will know which teams will be headed to
Indianapolis for Super Bowl 46 in Indianapolis. I'm not sure whom to
root for, I just know that I plan on having as much fun as possible
during the next two weeks. Between volunteering at the NFL Experience
and attending some of the free concerts, the Super Bowl Village and some
of the other events downtown and around the city, I feel like I'm going
to have a good time.
This past weekend, my girlfriend and I went to a rally for Super Bowl 46 volunteers at Lucas Oil stadium in Indianapolis. Discounted souvenirs were available for sale, the Mayor made an appearance as did an NFL VP, Frank Supovitz and a local media personality, Jimmy 'Mad Dog' Matis emceed the event. In addition, the Indianapolis Colts cheerleaders signed autographs and performed a couple of routines before the rally started.
Before attending the rally, we went to lunch at 'Tavern on South', which is located a couple of blocks west of the football stadium on South street. The food was very good as was the service. The cheeseburger and the bison burger get two enthusiastic recommendations from us. I am looking forward to a return trip, but only after the Super Bowl is over. Otherwise, it will be a very crowded place to eat.
It was not the best of days to have to walk several blocks from the parking lot to the stadium. The sidewalks weren't completely cleared and the lot itself was very muddy and nasty. We both regretted not wearing boots on Saturday, sneakers were definitely a bad decision. To top it off, the weather was very windy and very cold. More than one time that morning I wished I had worn a long sleeve shirt and brought a hat or scarf. Brrr....Later that day I found the temperature was in the single digits and below zero with the wind chill. After a late start, winter has finally arrived in Indianapolis.
I did manage to make a few pictures while at the rally and will post a few here. The field is still being prepared for the Super Bowl and maybe later this week on our tour of the facility, I will be able to get a better picture, hopefully with the team and NFL logos on the field. I'm also wanting to get a wide angle shot from the above the south end zone looking towards the city skyline. I have an idea of what I want, I just hope I get the opportunity to shoot it on Wednesday.
How about a few pictures? Some cheerleaders and interior shots of the stadium:
Well, that is all for now. More posts to come as the festivities get here!
